WOYWW 183, ARE WE HAVING FUN!

Julie set up this scheme called Whats On your Worktop Wednesday, so we could all mosey around the desks of crafters, artist or whatever title blows your skirt up around the globe. It is a legal addiction. This gives some of us the satisfaction that we are not the only messy workers in the world and everyone has petulant muses at one time or another.

Here is my work space sort of cleaned off . As usual, the where should I put this bits lay about in anticipation of a new comfortable draw where they will be forgotten. The red felt was used to die cut flowers in a demo for my friend Deanie on the advantage of this piece of equipment for those of us who after a few hours cutting have aching hands and fingers. nest to it is a catalog, useful when gluing, to isolate glue from any where not to be glued.

This is the card I made for Deanie that I forgot to take with me. Those creatures were sheep. I knew she would have a fit of hysterical laughter at my attempt to draw. This is what happens when you move from your template of sheep that is filed away in a secret compartment.

The inside. At this stage a disaster was in full swing.

So for the rest of this month i will follow 12 tags of Christmas or something like that over at a site I forget just where it is. It is over at Ellen Hotson web, but hard to find http://ellenhutson.typepad.com) as it is somewhere on her site. This is another effort to try to learn a few techniques and get them right. Ah tomorrow a new day!

LOL Monica your card is a hoot! Love it. I've jumped the gun and don't have a WOYWW # yet. I am so far behind on EVERYTHING else one more evening isn't going to hurt.......I do believe it is time for wine and chocolate....Krisha

Aw your sheep are lovely...and I knew before you said it that the template was filed somewhere temporarily too safe to access! I too have a separate gluing area...ie catalogue. It's one of the best unsung hero type tools isn't it!

Today it is dreary, misty, in sharp contrast to the brilliant sunny days of last week and the weekend. I feel suitably dreary and have another UTI that makes me feel miserable. Working on Wanderlust. The classes have been great fun. This did not quite work out

SO EXCITED back again working. tried everything cleaned and cleared and just left it; we had problems with TVs and computers so we turned all off and unplugged etc. All electronics seem to go out in 2 year period. It was Good-by to Sunshine my yellow beetle and hello red rider, a new Hyundai Sonata with a lot of gadgets that may take the rest of my days on earth to commit to memory! Today is July 4th and not a trace of red white and blue. Mostly because the morning was spent posting icad on Instagram and a very plodding piece of social media it is after Facebook.

This is for the Wanderlust Class of Rae Messigman. She really teaches very well with great detail. The pieces at the front are the covers of the book, she used department envelopes but they are not available in our small town. Behind them are the signatures. She likes to paint the folios as she does not like blank pages. I am not afraid of blank pages just a blank mind. I went along with her ideas as splashin…

Vacation is over finally home and trying to get into my usual comfortable RUT. Whenever possible I read your blogs. It just amazed me how often there is no Wi FI or signal. So here I am. catching up with Wanderlust and "Playing Tag Art Challenge" with Roben-Marie Smith, a task I expected to complete in a couple of hours; it is now 5 hours later and completion is days down the road

This week in Wanderlust the guest artist was Azoline , a fine french artist who is very organized, careful, tidy and conservative. Everything I am completely NOT. Her class, video and pdf were detailed and easy to follow. So below is what I made. She uses Yupo paper and alcohol inks, I did not have Yupo so used Rangers glossy paper for alcohol inks. really like how it turned out and plan to at least use up the alcohol inks. problem is that they are sold in sets of 3, and for me, who loves brights it means 2 drabs for every bright.
